We will look at this through our own narrow prisms of 'national interests'. To some, a reflexive anti-Americanism will justify the Russian invasion. To the Chinese, the Iranians, and others, it is a God-Send opportunity to keep the West tied down in Europe. I personally don't take any sides in this and nor should Pakistanis. This is a European war and like all wars, fought for natural resources. But it must be said: The West's expansion toward Russia is to grab Russia's riches; they couldn't wait for Putin to die so that another drunk Yeltsin would hand over Russia to them. I don't think Russia would have gone to this extreme had it not been provoked for so long.

If all the Ukrainians-a country of 40 million with strong decades old Western support--can come up is a guerilla war as the best plan then they don't have the fight in them.

Russia's UN envoy said Russian federation has no plans to invade Ukraine. The Ukrainian representative, on the other hand, said that war criminals would burn in hell, while looking into the eyes of his Russian counterpart.

Yeah they said they had no plans to invade Ukraine, but they didn't believe it. Even to the point of where a Ukrainian reporter attacked a pro Russian politician days before the invasion because of possible war.

I saw it coming following some twitter that have access to intel from aircraft and satellites. It was pretty obvious when you have Russian firepower being stationed everywhere, medical hospitals being setup, blood banks for wounded soldiers, Z symbols on vehicles, etc. Too expensive and too much for exercises.

That’s true, the expense of staging 120 battalion tactical groups; 75% of the Russian Army in place was too expensive not to use. (This also indicates the Russian military isn’t as strong as it looks, and this was probably the last big war the current Russian military can afford to launch)

Although this operation will probably be swift, max a few weeks as the muddy soil of March will bog down any Russian troop movements. So, Putin looks like he wants to be in and out within a fortnight, if not sooner.

Two lessons smaller nations will learn from this: always build up a decent conventional force to at least be a challenge to a larger adversary. And the second is unilateral denuclearization is suicidal. (It’s moments like these, we should be thankful Pakistan had people like AQ Khan and other Gumnaam heros)

All the non-proliferation experts will have this example to try to explain away.

The goal is regime change, Putin just said this before his start of the invasion. He wants the entire demilitarization of Ukraine. Donbass will of course be separated from Ukraine once this assault ends.

Even USSR cannot hold Afghanistan, let alone Ukraine which is much powerful, there will be insurgency and supplied armed by US and NATO countries.

It is suicide to capture whole big nation like Ukraine

Russians are proud people. You can't keep humiliating them and expect to get away with it. They are the type of people who would kill themselves just to make sure you got hurt because you insulted them.
